" The object of this work," says Mr. James, the author, " was neither fame nor profit, but to give a short and fami liar, rather than a full and laboured, account of the new colony in Australia ; and instead of indulging in fanciful or florid descriptions of the country or climate, to give a few dry rec a t ncLs s im a p lt le details ogetiie of f altogether practical, pra et a i c c t a si a ;:— and n i t is word,n no more o Ar . Jam es's object haanjeus's s -1 tice to him to say, that it has been successfully fulfilled. Hi E. work gives us by far the best, and, to all appearance, the most impartial, account we have yet had, of that new Australian colony and its capital city, Adelaide, which are so full of promise on paper, and to which emigrants are continually flocking from all quarters of England, in the confident hope that they are journeying; like the Israelites of old, to a land flowing with milk and honey. The author commences his volume by these serviceable suggestions : " The best ships always sail from London to our eastern colonies, and were I going out again to the colony, I should never think of embarking at Liverpool or any other out-port, bus decidedly from London. When you have found a suitable vessel, I would not recommend any person to drive a bargain with the agents or captain. The existing competition among ship-owners will prevent any advantage being taken of the party applying for accommodation, and it should, when con cluded, be committed to paper, for there is nothing like black and white in these matters, for the word of a ship-broker, with some honourable exceptions, is not good for much." After a few further practical hints, chiefly respecting the sum to be paid for the passage to either of the ports of Australia or Van Diemen's Land, which, it seems, is "se venty pounds for a single gentleman's cabin," Mr. James proceeds to give some interesting particulars respecting the mode in which one's time is spent on board : " At seven o'clock in the morning every body generally rises, and is on eleck by eight bells, or eight o'clock, by which time the decks are dry, awning spread, and you touch your bat to the captain or officer of the watch, and take a turn or two before breakfast, which is on table punctually at half-past eight, and consists of curry and rice with pickles, cold chicken, sausages, ham or tongue, liver and bacon, pork or mutton chops, with hot potatoes, rolls, tea, coffee, toast and butter; it is, in short, a sort of dinner, with the addition of tea and coffee. The morning is spent 'till half-past eleven o'clock in reading, writing, walking, talking, .Ic. ; and at about twelve the passengers go into the cabin or cuddy to lunch. This is not a formal meal, and is conducted without fuss or ceremony, and merely consists of a glass of bottled porter or ale, a crust of bread and cheese, and a slice of cold ham, while the ladies perhaps are satisfied with a glass of wine in their own cabins. At three o'clock comes the dinner. The ladies always attend the table, and by their neat and pretty dresses add much to the pleasure and beauty of the feast. All the art of the cook and steward have been called In aid to make a show for dinner, which besides a clean damask table cloth, and a profusion of silver and glass, consists invariably of soup, followed by roast and boiled meat, fowls, geese, tur key, ducks, mutton, or pork, curry and rice, hash and ham ; and is concluded by two sorts of pies and puddings, with a dessert of almonds, raisins, figs, nuts and apples, all washed down with as much porter, ale, port and sherry, as you like, and generally on Sundays with a glass or two of champagne. This makes the afternoon fly pleasantly away, and by the time your last cigar is finished, and you have tired yourself with walking on deck, tea and coffee is announced for those who choose it, at seven o'clock, and then the pleasantest part of the twenty-fou r hours commences ; viz., the evening, which is either passed at cards, chess, reading, music, -dancing, or walking arm-in-arm with the ladies on the quarter-deck. At nine o'clock those who may require a little supper have only to say so to the steward, and a bit of something cold and a glass of grog, or a cigar, finishes the evening, and at ten, or half-past ten o'clock, the passsengers mostly turn in, and all the lamps and candles are extinguished." The voyage, Mr. James tells us, ought to be performed by every vessel which puts forth pretensions to superior speed, in twelve weeks, at the rate of a thousand miles a week, which is the fair average running of a good ship ; h e adds however, th a t a ll owances should always be made for light winds and calms near the equator, and that therefore it is the best way to estimate the voyage as one of rather more than fourteen weeks' duration. Our author's account of Port Adelaide, which is intended to he the chief port of the new colony, is far from favourable. After sailing up a narrow and muddy creek with shoals on either side, leading out from St. Vincent's Gulf, the ship anchors off the Port, whose shores resemble the worst parts of the coast of Essex below the Nore ; in fact, constitute "an uninhabitable swamp," where there is only one spot of land free from inundations, which is called the Sand Hill, where one or two grog shops, made of branches of trees, are seen, a few native blacks stark-naked, and a large iron store painted white, belonging to the Commissioners. " This," says Mr. James, "is Port Adelaide !" The town or city—which boasts the same regal ron not. seem o muchemt f o co b u e rse, frombettthe Port, er.l It is about n miles " And is altogether on too large a sc a l e . Th ere are sprinkled up and down the place a few substantial b u ildi ngs; seven but the rest of the dwellings are made of very slight mat er i a l s , and the number of canvas tents and marquees give some parts patronymic—does distant, does n inl of the settlement the appearance of a camp. The prin c ip a l s tr e ets have been laid out in the survey o f th e town , a hundred and thirty-two feet wide, which is nearly twice the width of P o rtland-place : and the squares are all on such a scale of m agnitude, that if there were any inhabitants in them, a cab would almost be required to get across them ! The town, including the Palk-lands, is already eight miles round with three thousand inhabitants only." Every black, however, has its white, and Adelaide'City is a verification of this old proverb. Its site, and the in judicious plans for its laying out, are the chief—indeed the only—objections which Mr. James urges against it ; in every other respect it abounds in advantages. The soil in the neighbourhood is fertile, and not ill-watered ; the cli mate is genial and salubrious ; the " labouring classes" are respectable and satisfied with their position ; and the " fe males contrast very favourably with the rubbish of Sydney." Labour," adds our author, " is the best capital you can have, and the wages are so high that a commonly conducted man can maintain himself and family in greater plenty than a gentleman ; whence it follows as a matter of course that there is not much scope in the colony for the talents of edu cated men without some capital." It is better, we are told, to have little or nothing to do with land except in the way of renting it ; for good as it is in many places, it is not worth more than five shillings per acre, which it would be mad ness to give in a country requiring ten acres to feed a sheep. After describing, the state of society at Adelaide, which all things considered, is highly satisfactory, Mr. James tells the following striking anecdote, from which we draw this useful inference —namely, that the erection of a gallows, and the appointment of a Jack Ketch, are among the first steps in civilization that should be made by an infant colony. A scientific Old Bailey gallows is the surest possible test of a highly civilized state of society : I w as present at the Court House in Adelaide, to hear hi s Honour, Judge Jickling, pass sentence of death on Magee, an Irish Catholic, who had been found guilty of forcibly en tering the sitting-room of Samuel Smart, Esq., Sheriff of the colony, and maliciously shooting at him with intent to kill. After sentence had been pronounced, who was to be Jack Ketch, was the first question asked in the morning, and the last at night. Five pounds were offered, and then ten ; but it was all in vain ; no man would accept the proffered reward ; and it will probably never he known who the individual was who hanged the first capital convict in South Australia. On the morning of the execution, one thousand persons, and a half of them females, were seen hastening to a wide spreading gum tree, to see the -ceremony. It was the only suitable tree on government land adjacent to the town, and was selected as being furnished with a large projecting, horizontal bough. At nine o'clock the procession was discovered coming through the trees; there were were about ten of the newly mounted police, besides the sixteen marines, forming the whole mili tary force of the colony ; then followed a common cart drawn by two horses, in which was seated the culprit, on a deal coffin, with his arms loosely tied behind him. With him was seated on the coffin a man in a horrid mask, grotesquely daubed beneath the eyes with white paint, having one hump on his hack and another on his breast. As the procession advanced, the well-known service for the burial of the dead was heard from the mouth of the colonial chaplain, the Rev. Mr. Howard. While the last finisher of the law was busied in adjusting the rope, Magee, in a firm and audible voice, confessed the crime of which the jury had found him guilty ; and as soon as the cap had been drawn over his face, and the prayers were concluded, a motion was made that all was ready, and, with a whip or two of the leading horse, the cart was drawn away, and the poor sufferer launched into eternity. But here commenced one of the most frightful and appalling sights that ever, perhaps, will be again witnessed in the colony I The noose had been so badly managed that the knot, instead of the ear, came right under the chin of the dying man ; and as the cart was very slowly drawn from under him, he did not fall, but merely slid off; and there he was, hanging in the air, uttering the most excruciating cries of Oh God, oh Christ, save me 1' and to make it worse, he had been so badly pinioned that he got both his hands up to the rope above his head, to prevent his choking, and to ease the strain upon his neck. What was to be done ? Jack Ketch was gone. Fetch him back,' was vociferated by the crowd, and one of the mounted police was dispatched after him, full gallop. All this time the poor banging man was ut tering the same piercing cries that might have been heard a quarter of a mile off, " Lord save me ! - Christ have mercy upon me I" and nobody knew what to do. Some cried' cut him down,' while others urged the marines to shoot him, to put an end to his sufferings ; whilst the poor wretch was making the most powerful efforts, with his hands up to the rope, to prevent The climate of the new colony is, according to Mr. James's account, as healthy as any person can imagine, and from April to November may challenge comparison with the most favoured regions of the globe. " I have some times," he observes, "in the mornings of April and May, while inhaling the pure and balmy air of Mount Lofty, felt a positive pleasure in mere animal existence, in the act of breathing." From the latter end of November, however, to the commencement of March, the heat is almost in tolerable. Water, too, is not quite so abundant as might be desired, for the springs and rivulets have an ugly trick of drying up in the hot months, so that a man may walk across the river Torrens, " without knowing it." Grapes, oranges, lemons, figs, olives, pomegranates—each in its highest perfection—abound in South Australia, which " even in its present infant state, produces as fine melons as the Levant." After all, however, the great recommenda tion of the new colony is its peculiar adaptation to sheep farming and the growth of wool, in which, we are told, it will soon rival the older colony.

It has seldom fallen to our lot to witness a more interest ing and t ouc hi ng scene t h an t h at w hi c h too k p l ace at the Mansion House on Thursday last, the I3th inst., on the occasion of the introduction, by Captain C. M. Lewis, of William D'Oyiy, the infant so miraculously redeemed by him from savage life) to his relation and guardian, Mr. Bayley, of Stockton-upon -Tees, who had the honour to be seated near the Lord Mayor, for the purpose of receiving this child of Providence. Although the Coart was crowded to excess to witness this affecting ceremony, a solemn silence prevailed during Mr. 13ayley's brief but pathetic recital of a series of mysterious events, originating in a catastrophe unparalled in the annals of human woe, but terminating in that glorious and almost preternatural deliverance which they had then the delight to witness in the person of this little boy, who was a living monument of the mercy of Heaven, of the humane feeling which governed the coun cils of her Majesty's Ministers, and particularly Lord Glenelg, and of the sound judgment, nautical experience, and undaunted courage of Captain Lewis, who had so ably and so successfully executed his important commission, and whose undaunted claims to patronage and promotion Mr. Bayley hoped would be fully and satisfactorily satisfied. The Lord Mayor said he responded to these sentiments with heartfelt satisfaction, and that Captain Lewis's ad mirable conduct would not be forgotten, after which that gentleman, Mr. Bayley, and the more than interesting child, left the Court amidst universal benedictions. On Sunday, the 16th inst., the Hon. and Rev. Baptist Noel preached a most beautiful sermon from the Ist and 2d verses of the 103 d Psalm, in which he touched upon the wreck of the Charles Eaton, and the redemption, by Captain Lewis, of William D'Oyly from savage life, in a strain of pathetic eloquence, which commanded the admiration and profound attention of a crowded congregation. In the evening of the above day the Rev. Mr. Packer, of Campden House, Kennington, preached an excellent sermon on the same subject from the eight last verses of the Bth chapter of the Second Book of Kings, and offered up prayers for the child. Captain Lewis, and Mr. Bayley, of Stockton, had the honour of an interview with Sir George Grey, in Downing_ street, on Thursday, the 13th inst., and presented William D'Oyly to that gentleman. Captain Lewis, and Mr. Bayley, of Stockton, had the honour of an interview with the Right Hon. Lord Glenelg, on Monday, the 12th inst., in Downing-street, and pre sented William D'Oyly to that nobleman. THE WEATHER.—Wednesday night was the se verest that has been experienced this season. The frost setting in in the early part of the night, and continuing to in crease in severity until about six o'clock yesterday morning, when the thermometer stood at eight degrees below freez ing point. The ornamental water within the inclosure of St. James's Park was entirely frozen over, the ice varying from a quarter to the eighth part of an inch in thickness. The ponds in Kensington Gardens were also covered with a sheet of ice. Lord March and his tutor, the Rev. W. Turner, M.A., have arrived at Goodwood from Oxford. The Dow ager Duchess of Richmond, and a distinguished company, are already arrived ; and we understand it to be the inten tion of the Duke and Duchess of Richmond and family to remain at Goodwood until the meeting of Parliament.— Brigh tom Gazette. THE WORKING MEN'S ASSOCIATION. Last night there ens a numerous meeting of the members of this Association at the Hall of Science, Commercial-place, City-road, for the purpose of taking into consideration the present state of the country, and to determine upon the most efficient means of organizing the men of London in support of the National Convention. Mr. FEARGCS O'CONNOR was unanimously called to the chair amid the most enthusiastic cheering. The Learned Gentleman then proceeded to address the meeting to nearly the following effect:—Working men and brother Radicals find, notwithstanding the attempts of a Whig- Radical, sham- Radical Newspaper, called the Morning Advertiser, to intimi date you from attending here this evening, that all their at tempts have fallen to the ground harmlessly, fur I see before me crowds of my brother Radicals—( Cheers)—and in addition, females, who have such confidence in the peaceableness of our conduct, that actually many of them have brought their in fants in their arms.—(Cheers.) The Morning Advertiser, according to Whig-Radical parlance, has got a revolutionary article in this morning's Paper, but, Whig-like—O'Connell like—it denounces me, and conjures all to:beware of Feargus O'Connor and his physical-force men, whereas in its article its the very next article, it justified physical force being re sorted to, if it was necessary.—( Great cheering.) I have ocly seen that Paper since I entered this room, but I see it asks what this meeting is convened for? Why the editor of that Paper might have known, if he had chosen, but as he would seem to be ignorant I will tell him, and in doing so I wish him to understand, not for the purposes of the master of the Advertiser.—(Cheers.) The editor of the Advertiser, ignorant of the object of these meetings ! Why, he has had two reporters attending the meet ings that have hitherto been held, for the purpose of seeing whether I committed myself or my party, and because I did not do so, because I recommended the adoption of moral and not physical force, not a word of either of the meetings has been reported.—(Cries of " Shame, shame.") These meet ings, my Friends, are called to disabuse the minds of the men of London, and I declare, before you and my God, that we have been most falsely charged, and most maliciously misre presented ; and upon those false charges and malicious misre presentations we have been denounced by the 211-rning Adver tiser.—( Cries of " Shame !") Now, to show the editor of the Morning Advertiser, that I do not:shrink, from his attacks, here I stand ready to defend myself, and to explain the objects of the present meeting. No doubt the 111,rning Advertiser finding out that I have not and do not intend to utter treason, nor commit my own party, no doubt that Paper has not sent any reporters here to-night.—(Gries of, " Shame.") Except, indeed, being frightened at its own shadow, some of its myr_ midons are here in the character of spies.—(Great cheering ) The Morning Chronicle has also denounced me, but it now declares that I have become more moderate than I was when 1 was in the north, that I have spoken in favour of capital_ that I was fur protecting capital —to be sure I am, because it is in the sinews of the:working man; but these asses when they get behind a goose quill.—(Great laughter)—seated in their garrets, it is astonishing what tom-foolery they will indulge in —(Great laughter) —and that, too, with the utmost compla cency, behind the ridiculous andpompous— ll'e.—( Laughter. ) That pompons word signifying probable some conceited fool stuck up in a garret.—(Laughter.) These men are just like Barristers—l admit that lam one—(Laughter) —and they arc all ready, as we all know, to speak according to their pay.—(Cheers.) These asses think when they write an article that pleases themselves that they have gratified the whole world.—(Cheers.) Now you ought, my friends, to know how to estimate these felloes.—(Cheers.) Why, if there was a Newspaper in the market to morrow the paltry sum of 51. would transfer it to Whig. Tory, or Radical.— (Cheers.) I have termed myself the .National Gazette, be cause I do not hesitate to say that if it was not for me the people, the real people—(Cheers) —would know little or nothing, and it is because I open your minds to your just rights that attempts are made to intimidate me. Why don't they come here if they wish to do so —(Cheers.) I chal lenge the whole Press of London to meet me here face to face, and not up the back-stairs, for that purpose._( Cheers.) Let them come forward and show that I am acting upon false foundations—that what lam doing will lead to destruction and civil war—let them do that, and then I will admit that I am wrong.—(Cheers.) It is my intention every night to ad dress the working classes, and I challenge the Editor of the Morning Advertiser, and all the Press of London to attend, to prove if they can the truth and justice of their denuncia tions.—(Cheers.) Let them, if they can, prove me to be the mad demagogue and the fire-brand they have denounced me to be.—(Cheers.) Let them only prove that, and the working classes will be justified in abandoning me as their greatest enemy—as one whose only object has been to involve them in civil war.—(Great cheering.) It is not my wish, it never was my wish, to produce such a state of things.—(Continued cheering.) What has always been my language to the Northerns ? Why, that moral force in effect accomplished what others said they sought to effect by physi cal force.—(Cheers.) You may depend upon it, my friends, that the man who recommends you to rush on with physical violence will be the first man to desert you.—( Cheers.) I recommend you, then, my friends, to proceed by moral force, and be assured, if you do, your objects will be accomplished.—( Cheers ) By moral force, however, I do not mean the moral power of the Scotch philosophers—(Cheers)—of their chippings of the Excise, and of attacks on the tea-pot.—( Great laughter.) The people's moral power is to make the men who have the cause of the people at heart spend their last farthing in regenerating the condition of the people.—(Great cheering.) lam happy, my friends, to say that there are many men of fortune among us, but they have all travelled at the expense of the people, with the exception of myself.—(Cheers.) 1 have travelled at my own expense—(Great cheering)—and if I had bushels of money to-morrow, I would spend it all —so help me God I—in the accomplishment of the great object we have in view, viz., Universal Suffrage. Now, what do they mean by physical force? If you give a child a slap in the face, that is physical force 1 --(Cheers.) L And if a 94-pounder was fired upon the people, what is that but physical force ?—(Continued cheer ing.) I have said to those who are rich Radicals, and who have advised to strike work—l have said to them, " Strike work first, in order to set us the example." Let them suspend the discounting of bills—let them cease from their money dealings—let them give up their commercial transactions if' they are sincere—in short, let them, as I have before said, strike first, and set the working men the example. If they did so, all the alarm that has been created from physical force would be rendered unnecessary. According to the Advertiser as the mass of the people constituted the resisting force, they were entitled to be heard. Stick those words, my friends, on your banners, and write underneath " from the Morning Ad vertiser."—( Great cheering.) And if after that period you find that paper in any house not advocating such doctrines, sum mon the landlord, and declare to him that his' ale did not smack of the proper quality, and that his braady is not suffi ciently pure.--(Great cheering.) To those houses most of you go to see the paper, for you cannot well afford sd. a day for a paper, at least 4d. for the paper and Id. for the stamp. —(Cheers.) Talk of capital, indeed 1 There was so little capital there. Now what was the Advertiser? What it is I can hardly say, but I can tell you what it is going to be—it is going to be the organ of a sham-Radical party—the only party that you, my friends have to dread. —(Loud cheers.) Look with abhorrence upon all the proceedings of any sham-Radical party. The co-operation of the Press in such an object has been, and always will be a fruitful source of revolution in all countries, The follies of leaders will be pandered to by it, and the worst re sults may be expected. Universal Suffrage we are determined to have, and that by moral force ; but the Whigs would as soon have it by physical as by moral force. Their object is to put the physical-force party and the moral-force party against each other—not for the purpose, my friends, of doing the people any good, but to get their own burdens reduced. They seek to resist the claim of Universal Suffrage, but the people will and must have it.—(Hear, and loud cheer ing.) Be, however, upon your guard. Looking to Ireland._ hots a heretofore ndNatruhatih heGwt ei p oirtzv u h:e t virtl.nri d l ome o md w eugnr n .ctre ? i Why, rural police were introduced, and then Ireland was coerced.— (Great cheering.) What have we now to expect ? What will Mr. O'Connell say ? Why, he had declared that he would support the:People's Charter. He would get up in the House of Commons and say, " True, Sir, I did pledge myself, to support thelPeople's Charter. I am still prepared to do so.
